I've never seen anything like that before - commercial or DIY. Very good!

Nice work. I'm interested in the project to build drawers in the Incra router table stand. I recently purchased the same stand and so far have only put 1/2 panels in the short sides. I'm thinking on how to enclose and add drawers. Do you have a picture of it complete to help me?

Rockler sells a version of that now. I knew I saw something blue that was a drawer slide jig but didn't realize it wasn't Kreg. Anyways, that's a great on-the-spot jig making and much cheaper too. I have some of those HF magnets around as well, so i might follow suit.

Its not quite done yet, otherwise I would post the project. I still need to make the drawer fronts. Here are some recent pics. I've also attached a rough drawing of how I layed out the face frame. This should give you a 1.5" reveal all the way around. I used at 3/4" face frame and cut a rabbit on each side to be able to slide in the stands .5" slots.

I thought about buy the Rockler one after I couldn't find the Kreg, but it just seems overly complicated for what it is. Plus, even though I really like Rockler's customer service and their branded products, their shipping is frustrating. Amazon Prime has ruined me.

I finally got around to uploading my finished router table on LumberJocks. If you are still interested you can find it here: Incra Router Table

I was searching the web to see if my project DIY slide jig would show up and it did. Yours also did.

The magnets are a nice touch. Wish I incorporated one in the top of the adjustable leveling knob on mine.
I could make another knob with one.

Great idea. Here's a photo of my version you can see it on my page.

I noticed you haven't posted any more of your great projects since 2017.
